centre.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Solution

The unit does not operate. The unit does not operate if it is switched on

immediately after switching off the unit. After

switching off the unit, wait for approximately 3

minutes before switching on the unit.

Odours are emitted. Some odours may be emitted from the indoor

unit as the result of room smells (furniture,

tobacco, etc.) which have been taken into

the unit. If the odours persist, contact an

authorised service centre.

Water-kowing noise. The water-kowing noise is the refrigerant

kowing inside the unit.

Mist is emitted in COOL mode. During cooling operation, mist may be

emitted from the indoor unit due to high

room temperature and humidity. The mist will

disappear if the room temperature and humidity

decrease.

Cracking noise. The cracking noise is the sound of friction

caused by expansion and/or contraction of the

front panel or other parts due to the change in

temperature.

The unit cannot be started. Is the unit disconnected from the power

supply?

Is the mains plug loose?

Is the circuit protection device tripped off?

Is the voltage higher or lower? (tested by

professionals)

Is the timer function used correctly?

The cooling/heating effect is poor. Is the temperature set correctly?

Is the air inlet or the air outlet blocked?

Is the air jlter dirty?

Is the window or the door open?

Is a low fan speed set?

Are there heat sources in the room?

14 www.electrolux.com

The remote control does not

work.

Is there any magnetic or electrical interference

near the unit? If yes, remove and reinsert the

batteries.

Is the remote control within its transmitting and

receiving range without any obstructions? If

necessary, replace the batteries.

Is the remote control damaged?

Water leakage in indoor unit. The room humidity is high.

Condensing water overkows.

The drain hose is loose.

Water leakage in outdoor unit. In COOL mode, water condensate is generated

around the pipes and connection joints.

In HEAT mode, the water on the heat

exchanger drips out.

In defrost mode, the thaw water kows out.

Noise from indoor unit. The noise emitted when the fan or compressor

relay is switched on or off.

If the defrost mode is started or stopped, you

will hear the sound of refrigerant kowing in the

reverse direction.

The indoor unit cannot blow air. In HEAT mode, when the temperature of the

indoor heat exchanger is low, the airkow is

stopped within 2 minutes in order to prevent

cold air.

In HEAT mode, when the outdoor temperature

is low or the outdoor humidity is high, frost will

be formed on the outdoor heat exchanger. The

unit will defrost automatically and the indoor

unit will stop blowing air for 3-12 minutes.

In DRY mode, the indoor fan will stop

blowing air for 3-12 minutes in order to avoid

condensing water being vapourised again.

In defrost mode, water or vapour may be

emitted.

Moisture on air outlet. If the unit operates at high humidity for a long

time, moisture will be generated on the grill of

the air outlet.

C5: Malfunction of connector

jumper.

Check if the connector jumper contacts

properly. If necessary, replace the old circuit

board with a new circuit board.

F1: Malfunction of indoor ambient

temperature sensor.

Check if the indoor room temperature sensor is

connected properly.

ENGLISH 15

F2: Malfunction of evaporator

temperature sensor.

Check if the evaporator temperature sensor is

connected properly.

There is harsh sound during

operation.
